Willow is an
amazing wood for magical tools because it is already
perfectly aligned to magic (the movement of energy guided
by will ). This wood reacts to the will of the one who is
utilizing it, enhancing it accordingly. The stronger the
will, the more effective the wood.
Willow is
extremely useful in healing. It is also good for love
spells and rituals involving emotion. It also increases
psychic abilities, and is a great tool for divination as well
(especially concerning luck matters). |
